It will have escaped no one’s notice in Ligue 1 that Bradley Locko was one of the linchpins of Brest’s great season. Neither abroad, since several European clubs are closely interested in the situation of the man who was voted best left back in the Championship at the UNFP Trophies. If the Breton leaders have granted an exit voucher to Lilian Brassier, their central defender who has reached an agreement with OM, they will also have to expect requests for Locko, whose profile as a young person with potential ( 22 years old) remains rare in this position.

Nottingham will not keep ex-Marseillais Nuno Tavares

No offer has yet reached the Finistère offices but several English, German and Italian clubs are considering coming forward, first and foremost Nottingham Forest. The Premier League club has not exercised the option to purchase ex-Marseillais Nuno Tavares, who will return to Arsenal this summer, and would view the recruitment of the Espoirs international, currently on training camp. preparation for the Olympics with Thierry Henry’s Olympic team. But the East Midlands club will first have to comply with British Financial Fair Play, by June 30, before becoming truly active on the transfer market.

At the same time, Naples is also on the lookout in this matter. If, unlike Brest, qualified for the Champions League, the Italian club will not play next season of European competition, it wants to build a team capable of returning to the top of the Serie A table, and has in mind to strengthen its left corridor. With Locko in his sights.

If the summer transfer window starts slowly, due to the Euro, financial fair play in England or the procrastination around TV rights in France, Bradley Locko should liven up the market in the heart of the summer.
